Obama tells Democrats: Whatever Republicans do on health care, call it ‘TrumpCare’
Canada Free Press ^ | 01/05/17 | Dan Calabrese

Because only the worst health care laws get named after the presidents who sign them

I’ve actually considered whether Trump would want the ObamaCare replacement saddled with this name. I know I sure as hell wouldn’t if it was me. The whole point of a market-oriented health care reform is that the government doesn’t run health care, so it makes no sense to tell the nation that its trips to the doctor are courtesy of a politician.

Then again, Trump does like to see his name on things.

TrumpCare is easy.

Abolish Obamacare
Abolish Medicaid
Abolish Medicare

Then we have TrumpCare.

A 100% Free Market Health Care System.

Implicit in this statement is a recognition on Barry’s part that “Obamacare” is a pejorative.

He knows Obamacare is an albatross around his neck, he’s hoping that the Democrats can do the same to Trump.

Trump explicitly said no cuts to Medicare Medicaid Social Security.

You will be disappointed if you think you understand Trump’s positions.

Politicians keep asking what plan are we going to replace Obamacare with?
That is the point of all this.

We do not want or need a national health plan run by the federal government. We do not want federal control of our health care. The Federal government has politicized law enforcement and taxes collection and the environment and immigration and national security and the armed forces of our country. Why would you want them in charge of our health?

“I’ve actually considered whether Trump would want the ObamaCare replacement saddled with this name.”

Umm, maybe the author hasn’t noticed, but Trump puts his name on EVERYTHING.

The same people whose mantra is that a woman has a right to choose what to do with her body come back and say none of us has a right to choose what to do with our body when it comes to health care. We have to be part of a big government program whether we want to or not. Isn’t that the same thing?

Fuhgeddaboudit, Odumbo. You cooked that crap up. If they even keep one word of it, it’ll rightfully be called Obamacare forever. You can’t blame it on any other chef.

Patriots beware !

Given that Trump can get Trumpcare to work within Congress’s limited Commerce Clause powers (1.8.3), and a Trumpcare amendment to the Constitution if that becomes necessary, then the corrupt media is predictably going to credit Obama for Trumpcare anyway.

After all, citizens really never knew how Obamacare was supposted to work, not that Obamacare was based on a meaningful plan.

Remember in November ’18 !

Patriots need to start looking for state sovereignty-respecting congressional candidates for the 2018 elections, candidates that will support Trump in draining the unconstitutionally big federal government swamp.

Note that such a Congress will be able to drain the swamp with respect to getting the remaining state sovereignty-ignoring activist justices off of the bench.

Dollars to donuts when the GOP fixes healthcare, (if they actually do) the dems will keep calling it Obamacare...

“See it finally works with our help...”

What this idiot doesn’t realize it that unlike Obamacare, Trumpcare will be a success!
